Treatments for Anorexia Nervosa
INFORMATIVE
Tags: Anorexia, anorexia nervosa, health, eating disorders, treatment
Recognizing that a problem may exist is crucial.
Rarely are people aware of this problem themselves because this disease is defined by a distorted view of their own body image or weight.
Family member or friend must recognize the possibility of a medical or psychiatric problem.
| | A person with anorexia nervosa often resists questioning and is extremely secretive, usually denying any problem and making excuses for weight loss or eating habits. |
| | If pressed on the subject, the person may become angry or withdrawn, further complicating attempts by others to help. |
| | If you think a friend or family member has a problem, get that person to a physician, even if she or he strongly resists cooperating. |
| | There is no home remedy. |
